Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:

- NVMe updates via Keith:
- Enable Clang context analysis for the nvme host driver, adding
context annotations across core, fabrics, rdma, tcp and pci
- nvmet reservation state exposed through a new namespace-level
debugfs directory, plus ABI documentation for the host sysfs and
target configfs interfaces
- nvme-tcp host memory disclosure fixes on the read path: reject a
read that transferred too few bytes, don't accept C2HData based
on blk_rq_payload_bytes() alone, and fix the R2T case for a read
command
- Parallelize nvme-rdma I/O queue allocation and startup (Surabhi)
- Apple nvme fixes and quirks: page aligned admin queue buffers,
destroy the admin queue on removal, and various DMA/NVMMU
correctness fixes
- A large pile of nvmet and host fixes for out-of-bounds reads,
refcount/resource leaks, and NULL derefs across auth, zns,
passthru, pci-epf, rdma and configfs
- Various other fixes and cleanups

- MD updates via Yu Kuai:
- llbitmap reshape support, the large series wiring exact bitmap
mapping and reshape lifecycle through raid5 and raid10, growing
the page cache in place, and remapping checkpointed bits as
reshape progresses
- raid5 fixes for lockless max_nr_stripes and recovery_offset
accesses, a reshape deadlock with more failed devices than max
degraded, and bitmap batch counter consistency
- Atomic write handling for raid1/raid10, and removal of the
REQ_NOWAIT support from raid1/10/456
- raid5-ppl use-after-free fix in ppl_do_flush()
- A batch of smaller fixes across md core and the bitmap code

- s390/dasd ESE full-track write support and the surrounding
infrastructure, plus enabling CONTEXT_ANALYSIS for s390/block

- RWF_DONTCACHE support for block devices, built on new task-context
bio completion infrastructure, and wiring it up for the iomap and
buffer dropbehind writeback paths

- Async io_uring zone reset all, plus zone management command cleanups
allowing REQ_NOWAIT and tightening conventional zone rejection

- Block integrity refactoring: lift BIP_CHECK_FLAGS to the shared
header, handle nogenerate/noverify properly in fs-integrity, and drop
the blk-integrity.h include from bdev.c

- Split out a new blk_plug.h header

- ublk improvements: add UBLK_F_IO_DESC_SIZE, split request validation
from io_desc init, reject non-power-of-2 zone sizes in SET_PARAMS,
and a series of hardening fixes around map/unmap and auto buf reg

- null_blk cleanups and configfs serialization fixes

- nbd queue freeze removal on the setup paths, and a new
pre_defined_connections module parameter for pre-created devices

- blk-cgroup fixes for the race between policy activation and blkg
destruction, and accounting per-cpu stats over possible CPUs across
blk-stat, iolatency, iocost and kyber

- Various dio fixes: leak on metadata mapping error, validate user
space vectors during extraction, and set dma_alignment from the
backing file for loop and zloop direct I/O

- bio cleanups

- Various other fixes and cleanups all over

selftests: ublk: add rotating auto_buf index regression test

Batch AUTO_BUF_REG COMMIT must unregister the old auto_buf index before
storing the next one. Fixed per-tag indexing (A == B) masks bugs that
clear after overwriting io->buf.

Add kublk --rotate_auto_buf so each tag alternates between two sparse
buffer indices, and test_batch_04.sh to exercise that path. Without the
driver fix, the request ref stays stuck and I/O hangs; the test uses a
short timeout and kills the ublk daemon to recover. With the fix, a
small write completes quickly.

selftests: ublk: add ublk auto integrity test

The end-to-end integrity ublk selftest test_integrity_02 requires a
relatively recent fio version to support I/O with integrity buffers. Add
a version test_integrity_03 that uses the block layer's auto integrity
path instead. The auto integrity code doesn't check the application tag,
and doesn't indicate the bad guard/ref tag (just returns EILSEQ). But
it's a good smoke-test of the ublk integrity code and provides coverage
of the auto integrity path as well.

Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:

- Add shared memory zero-copy I/O support for ublk, bypassing per-I/O
copies between kernel and userspace by matching registered buffer
PFNs at I/O time. Includes selftests.

- Refactor bio integrity to support filesystem initiated integrity
operations and arbitrary buffer alignment.

- Clean up bio allocation, splitting bio_alloc_bioset() into clear fast
and slow paths. Add bio_await() and bio_submit_or_kill() helpers,
unify synchronous bi_end_io callbacks.

- Fix zone write plug refcount handling and plug removal races. Add
support for serializing zone writes at QD=1 for rotational zoned
devices, yielding significant throughput improvements.

- Add SED-OPAL ioctls for Single User Mode management and a STACK_RESET
command.

- Add io_uring passthrough (uring_cmd) support to the BSG layer.

selftests/ublk: add read-only buffer registration test

Add --rdonly_shmem_buf option to kublk that registers shared memory
buffers with UBLK_SHMEM_BUF_READ_ONLY (read-only pinning without
FOLL_WRITE) and mmaps with PROT_READ only.

Add test_shmemzc_04.sh which exercises the new flag with a null target,
hugetlbfs buffer, and write workload. Write I/O works because the
server only reads from the shared buffer — the data flows from client
to kernel to the shared pages, and the server reads them out.

so the command can use relative file paths. Existing callers that
